I have a keyless remote door opener (actually opens the door via compression cylinder). I would like to install a device that would kill the power to the door opener when the vehicle is NOT in "park". Anyone have any idea as to the best way to do this? I was told a proximity switch on the gear shift but really did not like that idea. The vehicle is a 2005 Ford Crown Vic. Thanks, Kaynine

If you have anything coming off the gear shift giving you either 12volts or 0volts when gearshift is in park such as a dashboard indicator test and let me know, I'll show you how to do it.
